Simms G3 Guide waders

Simms Fishing · Bozeman, MT

What the maker says
Simms says it builds select waders, including the G3 Guide, at its facility in Bozeman, Montana, where each pair is cut, stitched, taped, assembled and leak-tested; the product page says made in USA of imported materials (the GORE-TEX fabric). Source: Simms: How Simms waders are made
Caveat
Only select waders are built in Bozeman, and the fabric is imported. Simms says product origin varies across its line, so check the label on anything else (jackets, boots, hats).
